Still pasting the same doc?
Every new chat window starts from zero on what your company knows.
Every new tool, you go find the notes and paste them again.
Talk to usBefore — dig through notes, summarize, hand it out piece by piece
Pull the action items from this quarter's OKR review notes

Quarterly OKR Review NotesNow — one ask: found, connected, organized
Work stalls whenever the person who owns it is away
New hires treat senior teammates like a search bar
And it keeps cutting into the time of the people who know best.
Connecting is the whole job
Ask, and it answers with sources. Delegate, and it works from them.
WHAT YOU GET
This is the knowledge layer
A company wiki you can ask, with a link to the original on every page.


AGENTIC RETRIEVAL
Pile it on the server, or just click and connect?
Server-side — the whole pipeline lives on the server

JUST CONNECT
Build it yourself, then maintain it forever
Connect once. We handle the rest
Nothing to build. Connect your tools, and scattered documents become a wiki your team can ask.
- Checks for changes every 5 minutes
- Rebuilds only what changed

ASK IN SLACK · DISCORD
Answer the same question, again
Ask where you already work. Just ask
Mention the bot and it searches the knowledge layer for evidence. Nobody answers the same question twice.
- Slack
- Discord
- No new tool to learn

NO EVIDENCE, NO ANSWER
Sounds right, cites nothing
No evidence, no answer
When the search returns nothing, we never call the model.
- Every answer ships with its source

How the refusal works

AUDIT LOG
Every answer leaves a trail
Who asked, what came back, and which documents it drew from. Human questions and agent lookups alike.
Isolated per company
Each company's data stays separate. Another company's documents never enter your search.
Agents read only
What we open to agents is read-only. They can't change the wiki, the index, or the catalog.
Lookups are logged
Human questions and agent lookups land in the same log. You can check what any answer was based on.
WHY KNOWLEDGE LAYER
The base layer of the AI-agent era: the knowledge layer
For an agent to work, it has to read what the company knows. The industry calls this the knowledge layer. It gathers scattered company knowledge in one place so people and AI read the same evidence. OTOntology builds that layer from a Notion, Slack, or Discord connection alone.
“Why Enterprise AI Starts With A Knowledge Layer”
Connect, and the knowledge layer builds itself.
Ask and it answers, delegate and it works.
No evidence, no answer.

The knowledge layer that puts agents to work
On the call, we'll take a few of the questions your team keeps answering and see what comes back.
